    Awesome. I am considering a laptop of theirs when I move house. A thinkpad of some description. I think their professional grade stuff is excellent. Especially the inclusion of the Nub and mouse/trackpad. As I hate the trackpad and find a Nub so much better. There is a lot to be said about the Nub... or, maybe there isn't. :D

    When I've walked through Staples or PCWorld, I've actually felt that Lenovo had better quality look to it and weren't priced bad either compared to other manufacturers.

    Yes the T series Thinkpads look impressive. Built from carbon fibre I believe. Screen resolution is disappointing though, tha'ts what would put me off.

    I've had a couple of T series Thinkpads over the years. They're bloody excellent. My current work notebook is a Lenovo, too. :thumb:

    Lenovo took over from Sony a while ago at producing products with fantastic bullet proof build quality. So I wish them well, when I replace this awful Sony VPC model, Leno will be at the top of my list.

    Having used Dell for years I bought a Thinkpad about three years ago. Despite leading a hard life it still looks and works like new. Also, the best keyboard on a laptop you will ever use...ever. Definately going for a Thinkpad next time (if this one ever dies, which won't be any time soon by the looks of it).
